If you're prone to putting on tights and fighting crime from behind a mask, your options might be limited when you're inevitably injured – gotta protect that secret identity, right? Well, that's when you call in the Metadocs.

Variety reports that Syfy is developing the project as a potential series, which focuses on, "secretive wing of a large urban hospital that treats injured superheroes." Metadocs is based on a comic book from Antarctic Press.

Writing and executive producing is Michael Chernuchin, whose credits include two Law & Order series (original recipe and Criminal Intent) and 24. Variety notes that Metadocs -- one of several potential series at Syfy with a superhero hook -- is currently in the script stage.
